Answer:

4x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation with roots a and b has the equation (x - a)(x - b) = 0.

You roots are 1 and -3.

The equation is

(x - 1)(x - (3)) = 0

(x - 1)(x + 3) = 0

We can multiply it out.

x^2 + 3x - x - 3 = 0

x^2 + 2x - 3 = 0

Since we need the leading coefficient to be 4, we multiply both sides by 4.

4x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0

Answer:

4x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first write it in factor form.

4(x - 1)(x + 3) = 0

4(x^2 + 2x - 3) = 0

4x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0 (answer).

A crane is lowering a concrete block from a height of 270 feet above the ground at a constant rate of 2.5 feet per second. Which
iogann1982 [59]

The function would be h = 270 - 2.5s, where h is the height (in feet) and s it the time (in seconds) that has passed.

The 270 represents the initial value, which is given. We are told that the initial height of the block is 270 feet.

2.5s represents the feet that it has descended. We know the block is lowered at a rate of 2.5 feet per second. Multiplying this by s, the time, will give us how much it has descended.
